Anne Marden

16 februari 1926 - 31 mei 2022

Anne Marden, wife of the late John Marden, mother of Jennie, Doro, Anto and Debs, devoted grandmother to 11 and great grandmother to 14, died on 31 May 2022 aged 96, at her home in Shek-O. During the last years of her life she suffered from Parkinson’s disease, which she bore bravely. Born in Shanghai, she lived all her adult life in Hong Kong where she was a champion for the rights of underprivileged, especially children, strove to improve life and opportunities for Hong Kong’s physically handicapped, and used her personal standing to encourage acceptance of marginalised people, from refugees to women sex workers. She received many honours for her pioneering contributions to modern social services in Hong Kong.

Anne was such a beautiful, serene and loving woman.. unselfish and dutiful .. always taking care of everyone else. I remember the days on Kunjiang when Ah Shum would pull the waterskiers all day and just before returning home Anne would say “well if no one else wants to ski, perhaps I’ll do a round..” then pop on her ski and take off from the back of the boat without getting her hair wet !! It was a formidable sight for all on board!
